One bad coach doesn't make another bad coach look good. SD is a horribly run team. That's why Eli refused to go there. He knew. They don't spend money wisely and they don't protect the investments they have made. You can put them in the clowns category except with a decent QB.
Agree Vader but their decent QB is winding down, similar to ours except ours is a 1st ballot HOFer.
Salute the nation
Lynn did go for the onsides kick... with 3 minutes to go ... and we countered with Mongrief on our hands team.
then the Chargers kick to the other side of the field.
Tomlin won more than once last night.
Onside kicks almost never work any time.Stupid decision to try and onside kick with 3 timeouts. There has been ONE recovered inside kick recovered all year in the league.
Onside kicks almost never work any time.
BTW I thought he actually made a smart decision but not using his TOs earlier. He knew he would have one more chance. So he waited. Then he screwed it all away with the onsides kick. Just horrible decision making. You had the TOs just boom the kick out or kick it short.
Easy call is to kick it short. The Steelers return game is awful and wouldn't make it past the 20 and would also probably draw a holding call backing them up to the 10.
